Seward, Nebraska Time Capsule

The official GWBR-certified “World’s Largest Time Capsule” is located in Seward, Nebraska. At that location sits a brilliant white pyramid below which is a 20' by 8' by 6' concrete vault housing a variety of seventies memorabilia including a new 1975 Chevy Vega and a leisure suit.

Westinghouse built a stainless steel time capsule for the 1964 New York World’s Fair and is buried within a few feet of the 1938 capsule. In contrast to the earlier version which was buried before the fair opened, the later capsule was displayed at the fair, suspended between a trio of pylons. It wasn’t interred until October 16, 1965 and is to be opened along with its older sibling in 5,000 years.
